November 16 - Update

As mentioned in the last post, the drywall has been taped & mudded. I have vacuumed out the electrical boxes, around the edges & under the drywall, just have to vacuum the rest of the floor before they start painting.

All the dirt & gravel has been spread. We will be topping this up in the spring to make the slope more gradual & even everything off.

Today Karl & his helper installed the 2 man doors.

I spent a few hours today finishing off digging below grade along the 3 walls. I (my back) was so happy to be done, but then Marshall tells me that the wall under the dining room window needs to be dug as well. Ugh! Guess I will be back out there tomorrow with my shovel as this has to be done for the siding to go up & before it freezes!!!

The duct work has been started with the hopes for the heating, HRV & plumbing to be completed within 3 weeks.

Painters have been booked to start on November 25th. They spray on the primer and first coat of paint and roll the second coat.

Cabinets (kitchen & bathrooms) are ready and will be delivered on December 4th with install scheduled for December 5th & 6th.
